How old are your oldest strung bass strings

Rotosound flats don't seem to hold the zinginess Imho

 

I’ve not been happy with them since new.

I was hoping that they’d have worn in by now. 😂

I bought a NS Design CR4 eub in the late 90s. It came with lightweight strings that didn't bow very well so changed them out straight away for nylon core Obligato's and they've been on there ever since. And they've taken a lot of abuse. They might cost over £200 a set but given how long they last it's actually good value. Oh, and still sound as good as when I put them on.
